Air conditioner cycles constantly clutch engages then disengages...?

Your air conditioning system is most likely has an insufficient amount of refrigerant.

The way your air condition system works is by compressing a gas refrigerant into a liquid. That liquid goes into the evaporator coil where it boils off and releases heat. Then the refrigerant passes through an expansion valve ( a tiny hole that only a small amount can pass through at a time) into the low pressure side of the system. Since there is a drop in pressure, the refrigerant begins to absorb heat.

Your compressor cycles because it has a low pressure switch on the low pressure side of the system. Your compressor turns on and begins to pump the refrigerant into the high pressure side. Since you have a low amount of refrigerant, the compressor can pump it into the high side much faster than it can pass back to the low side. The compressor pumps the level in the low side down past the cutoff point and the low pressure switch cuts it off. The gas leaks back into the low pressure side through the expansion valve like it should, bringing the pressure back above the cutoff level and the compressor kicks back on.

How do you fix the windshield fluid not working on a 2000 GMC Jimmy?

Try replacing the windshield washer pump. There should be two pumps located on the washer reservoir. Simply unplug the electrical connector, pull the fluid tube off, lift them out. Put the new ones in the same place as the old ones. Place the fluid tube back and reconnect the electrical connector. The parts are pretty cheap about 15 bucks each from Autozone. Give it a shot. Overall it should take less than five minutes. Good luck.

How do you change the front wheel bearing on a 1999 Hyundai Elantra?

Make sure that it is not the tire that is causing the noise- bearings last a ridiculously long time. And then- You need to go to a car parts store, and get a repair manual for your car. They cost about $16.00 Or, go to a Public Library.

Wheel bearings do go bad on these cars. They need to be pressed in and out. If you don't have the tool, you might be able to rent it from store. You also will need an acetylene torch b/c the suspension parts tend to rust together and form a very strong bond. First remove the hub nut with a 32 mm socket. Then remove the tires. After removing brake caliper and rotor, you need to get the hub assembly out by removing ball joint and swinging it to get clearance to pull out from cv joint. A made in china press might work, but you would be better off having something thicker and stronger metal to try and push it out, b/c it will be a tight fit.

How do you change the ignition switch on a 1985 GMC Jimmy?

Remove steering wheel. Underneath is the turn signal switch. There is a ring around the steering shaft holding the steering wheel lock plate down. Push down on the lock plate and remove the ring and the lock plate. Next is the turn signal switch. 3 screws holding it down one on the right side above the key and 2 on the left. Probably have to move the turn signal switch left and right to get them. the arm is held on with one screw. Remove the hazard button, one screw in the end of it. There should be enough slack in the turn signal wires to get it over the steering shaft. On the top side at the bottom of the ignition switch there should be a screw. Remove screw and the ignition switch will just pull out. Reverse to install.

2000 gmc jimmy no floor heat but has defrost and vent heat.?

from what i am hearing a lot of is that it is either the accuator on the driver side to the right of the gas pedal or the baffle door itself is broken(costing a sh*t ton of money to fix have to remove the dash). there is a while plastic piece that has a tendency to break on the end of the accuator that goes into the box. some ppl use a bent coat hanger to push the baffle through the driver side floor vent to get it to move so you get floor heat, then disconnect the red and blue vaccume hoses off the accuator to prevent the baffle from moving. use a nail or tape to stop the vaccume leak . you should still have all you functions for the rest of your heat controls. just the floor and defroster wont switch back and forth. they will both work at the same time. this is the case for each the blazer, jimmy, sonoma, s10, zr2 1998 and up. if you still have your heat working on the floor id suggest that if you own one of these vehicals that you don't turn your defrosters onto full fefrost mode. just floor defrost. what happens is the accuator by the gas pedal when placed in full defrost mode places to much force on the white plastic piece and snaps it, or the piece that's just inside the box. if you put into floor / defrost mode the accuator works as intended.. its mostly a design flaw from gmc that was never made public. it was a volintary recall item
